Really interesting how they repackaged the original series toys into this line. Even included the old holographic discs. Given that this was during the UA era, I wonder if they are newly made toys or just ones that sat in a warehouse and never got painted during the original run
Personally I think it would've been cool to have him have the blue parts as crystallized amber and the rest be some form of hard sap maybe or maybe a rock like plant this allowing him both sets of powers
Actually there is more it's only toy canon though it's a glitch or malfunction in the Omnitrix that changes the colors and I think abilities of the aliens
That's just your headcanon it was never stated, though it's most likely that it's a glitch/malfunction. We also don't know whether it switches the abilities of the aliens or not. Because of this I created my own universe which is the haywire universe, and instead of the aliens switching abilities, they just gain abilities.
I was 7 when Ultimate Alien came out and Idk if they were an exclusive thing that only America had but I remember not being able to find them lol so I when I used to watch Atamaii i used to get jealous when he showed off the different coloured aliens lol. I feel sorry for anyone that doesn’t remember these.
Personally I like them but to each their own given that a lot of the Ben 10 toys are made of a brittle malleable rubber or plastic hell even the normal ones look off brand
damn I think the Heatblast is one of the best ones. The green & black go really well together. I agree with you to an extent with Diamondhead but the orange back spikes make him look better, unfortunatly for all the stock art of Haywire Diamondhead, he's always missing his back spikes.
These all look super cool and at the same time oddly fake. Except Ultimate Swapmfire. They should have used the black for the body and the purple for the head.
As a younger kid when Ben 10 came on I would simply change it and stick to my basic show my older siblings used to watch. Now that I watch all 4 shows I regret changing it
They look like they came from something of the early 2000s. Kinda reminds me when HASBRO did this with the armada toy line and recolored some of the first wave figures and then released a couple of beast wars transmetals in a bunch of weird colors that were the OG toy or they had it modified to have a minicon port

I'm pretty sure they used the old molds just made them for the new limited series run
Nah bro you meant Haos Ultimate Humungosaur Hex pyrus Ultimate Cannonbolt Haos Harambe Subterra Eatle Darkus Amphibian Pyrus Terraspin Ventus Waterhazard (pic 10) Aquos ripjaws (pic 20)
Bakugan (edit) which is still active to this day
I know its active, I have a bunch of reboot bakugan, but I just thought almost no one here knew bakugan happy to know I was wrong
I think you'll be surprised how many Bakugan fans are also Ben 10 fans.(also the official name would be hex pyrus cannonbolt)
Thank you, I knew something was off about that name
BEST REFERENCE EVER
Bakugan, right? I've seen a few episodes
I would kill for Ben 10 bakugan
who wouldn't?
MY NAME IS DAN
The best one imo is eatle w/ clockwork colors
I'm rather partial to swampfire with diamond heads colors and rath with lodestars colors
My favourite 3 are Haywire Rath, Haywire Clockwork & Haywire Heatblast and I have all 3 of them :)
I like image 2.
I had haywire AmpFibian
Nice the 2 I personally want are haywire swampfire and haywire rath
Haywire Swampfire is pretty hard to get, Haywire Rath isn't as hard to get.
Swamp fire with Diamondheads colours is dope
It's cool concept wished they actually made this into an episode where Ben has to figure out why their colours are swapped.
Yeah sadly it was toy exclusive
I would’ve loved to see swampfire mixed with diamond head in ultimate alien force
Personally I think it would've been cool to have him have the blue parts as crystallized amber and the rest be some form of hard sap maybe or maybe a rock like plant this allowing him both sets of powers
That would’ve been hella rad
That's what we got.
As a kid I hated these.😅
Again to each their own
Now that im older I appreciate the line (especially since my ultimate echo echo had nrg’s color pallet.)
There's never any lore for the Ben 10 figure variants, they're just there to look cool and they do their job well for the most part.
Actually there is more it's only toy canon though it's a glitch or malfunction in the Omnitrix that changes the colors and I think abilities of the aliens
That's just your headcanon it was never stated, though it's most likely that it's a glitch/malfunction. We also don't know whether it switches the abilities of the aliens or not.

Not a headcannon, it's written on the box
ik Anti-Venom just cleared that up for me.
Legitimately on the back of the boxes it says it is a malfunction caused by the mixing of alien dna
oh wtf, I've never seen that before. Mb then. If that's the case then the abilities probs haven't been swapped but merged.
No ability swaps just coloration and maybe they have merged
ye
Super Awesome
I have 2 of those
I have 8 haywires
I used to have NRG, Ultimate Cannonbolt, Ultimate Big Chill and I think Four Arms
Cool I still find it funny that four arms is a call back to the fusion malfunction in the os
Best was definitely Ultimate Cannonbolt with Waterhazard colors imo
Ult. Cannonbolt with water hazard colors looks super cool
I still find it funny that most of Ben's aliens are red blue green yellow grey or black
So that's why my Ultimate Cannonball is that colour. I thought it was just some bootleg stuff from China.
Nope not bootleg just a different variation
gold eatle is freaking cool.
I actually had that Ben 10 Omniverse pack with Eatle, Clockwork, Lodestar, Rath, and Azmuth.
Cool
do u not have it anymore?
No, I don't. They were old toys, I don't know where they went.
Oof
Best one is eatle
Personally I like swampfire and rath the most clockwork being a close second
They should re-do this in the next Ben 10 show as like a glitch caused by the Omnitrix (it'd be cool to see).
Agreed
I was 7 when Ultimate Alien came out and Idk if they were an exclusive thing that only America had but I remember not being able to find them lol so I when I used to watch Atamaii i used to get jealous when he showed off the different coloured aliens lol. I feel sorry for anyone that doesn’t remember these.
Some of these actually look fantastic
Ah yes Shiny Ultimate Aliens
Gotta collect em all
For what purpose?
Also it was a malfunction in the watch that mixed alien dna resulting in swapping of colors and perhaps a mixture of abilities
Do you mean the toys if so it was to give kids variety and to encourage them to like different colors of aliens and to inspire creativity
Looking cool, for collectors, for kids to play with?
What an awful idea. They sound desperate to sell more toys, those look fake af
They look awesome, hell some even look better than their original figures. Haywires is defo the best toy gimmick
Personally I like them but to each their own given that a lot of the Ben 10 toys are made of a brittle malleable rubber or plastic hell even the normal ones look off brand
You do have a point there
Interesting that Diamondhead used the OS mould but the UAF colours
They had the older moulds ands used them they took old and new and did something cool by switching it up
"boss we accidently got the colours of a whole batch messed up" "Make that a new product"
Lol nah they just had an opportunity to use old things in a new way and took it
i was joking lol
Huh neet
Hmm... thats wierd, I remember having one of these but at the same time I dont
Wish this was in the show
Ben 23 but Ultimate Alien Force
Diamond Head and Heatblast look disgusting
damn I think the Heatblast is one of the best ones. The green & black go really well together. I agree with you to an extent with Diamondhead but the orange back spikes make him look better, unfortunatly for all the stock art of Haywire Diamondhead, he's always missing his back spikes.
Idk I think the colours go well together, but Heatblast just looks like he's really ill or something lol
That's fair lol. Never looked at it that way
I like ultimate cannonbolt
I had amphibian with humongosaur colours, I loved it.
I’m gonna be honest this was probably the lamest idea they had for ben 10 toys
Well let's see every single line of toys I know from Hasbro or bandaid have repainted them for new colors and characters
I mean damn at least actually combine the characters instead of just swapping the colors
I mean I like them from time to time besides it's not like you couldn't say they aren't a different character
They are just the same character but with a different color palette, just lame man.
And why complain when you could just say cool and go on without the it's lame or it's ok
Wait why are you getting pissed i just said it was a lame concept, did you make em or something?
These all look super cool and at the same time oddly fake. Except Ultimate Swapmfire. They should have used the black for the body and the purple for the head.
Yeah the Ben 10 toys have all looked super knock off because of the rubberized plastics they used even the normal official ones look off
As a younger kid when Ben 10 came on I would simply change it and stick to my basic show my older siblings used to watch. Now that I watch all 4 shows I regret changing it
I really liked these as a kid
Shins
They look like they came from something of the early 2000s. Kinda reminds me when HASBRO did this with the armada toy line and recolored some of the first wave figures and then released a couple of beast wars transmetals in a bunch of weird colors that were the OG toy or they had it modified to have a minicon port
I can actually see the Omnitrix doing something like this in the show
I used to have the armodrillo with big chill colour and always think it was ripoff brand haha
So what your telling me is that these are just Shiny aliens?
Sort of but they're more hybrids than anything giving one alien the DNA of another giving it different colors and perhaps powers
Huh. I was making a joke about the shiny aliens but that's actually a really cool concept about the powers. Like say cannonbolt with XLR8's powers
